The judgment that Leicester vs MU leans a bit towards the visitors, with very good form in the away field, the Reds can fully think about 3 points in King Power.
MU is playing very well in the away field
MU is in extremely high shape recently. In the last game, the Reds beat Everton 2-0 away. It was the match in which coach Solskjaer’s team completely dominated the ball control rate and the number of shots. The victory at Goodison Park helped Manchester City’s red half earn tickets to the semi-finals of the British League Cup.
MU is in high form |
In the Premier League, MU has a series of 7 undefeated matches, including 6 victories. The impressive results brought the Old Trafford team to third place in the table. MU has 26 points, 5 points behind Liverpool’s best team, but kicks less than 1 game. If he beats Burnley in the first round of the comp match, Harry Maguire and his teammates will be just 2 points behind The Kop.
MU’s defenders played not very well, two games against Sheffield and Leeds were allowed 4 goals, but the Red Devils attack hit the opponent’s net to 9 goals. Bruno Fernandes is still becoming the driver of the Red Man game, Anthony Martial has started to regain his form with 2 goals and 4 assists in the last 3 matches in all competitions.
Marcus Rashford, Edinson Cavani, Mason Greenwood or even Daniel James were playing well when given the chance. Right at the peak of the season, MU showed stability. Due to the recent impressive performance, his fans are expecting his team to compete for the Premier League championship with direct opponents.
Leicester vs MU round 15 of the 2020/21 Premier League |
In round 15 of the 2020/21 Premier League, MU is a guest on the Leicester field. The Red Devils are playing very well away from home, they have a 10-game winning streak away from home in the highest league in English football. Historically, MU is the fourth team to do that. It is the only team to have scored at least 2 goals / match in the 10 win series mentioned above.
If MU has lost 3 games at home, in the away field it always shows a positive face. In recent times, MU has always played very well against Leicester. In the last 9 meetings, the Red Devils had 8 wins. MU only lost 1 match in the last 22 meetings with Leicester in the Premier League. The Red Devils won 17 and got 4 draws.
Last season, Solskjaer’s team won 1-0 at home and beat their opponents 2-0 at King Power. MU is the team that won the most (19 games) and scored the most (60 goals) against Leicester in the Premier League. With a very good performance away from home and a remarkable head-to-head record, Leicester vs MU leans a bit towards the visitors.
In terms of strength, MU only Marcos Rojo cannot play due to injury. However, this does not worry him too much because the Argentine star is no longer part of Solskjaer’s plan. Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Scott McTominay have minor injuries, the ability to play is left open.
Leicester is having trouble meeting MU at the moment |
On the other side of the front row, Leicester was at the top of the table for a while and currently ranks second, just behind defending champion Liverpool. In the last 5 rounds, coach Brendan Rodgers’ team won 4 victories and lost only one match against Everton. “The fox” is 1 point ahead of MU, 4 points behind Liverpool.
Against the great teams this season, the home team at King Power Stadium has some very impressive achievements. Leicester beat Man City 5-2, beat Arsenal 1-0, beat Tottenham 2-0 away and lost only to Liverpool. However, the instability of the home team King Power is the reason their competitiveness is questioned.
